I am having trouble deciding between these three dresses. I'm looking for some opinions from other people... why you would or would not pick one of the dresses, etc. Could you please take a look, and let me know which one you like, and why?
FYI - I already posted this question, but apparently my links weren't working, so I re-did it. Thanks to everyone who replied earlier!

As far as my body type, I am 5'9'', and weigh about 140lbs. Not overly busty, and not very wide in the hips.

I like number one because it looks like a wedding dress.
The others look like cocktail dresses to me. They also have too much going on. You want to wear the dress, not have the dress wear you.

Wow this was a very tough job you gave us here. They each had their own sense of something so here they all are.
#1. I think should be the one that will take his breath away. It is sliming and form fitting but not so skin tight that you couldn't have fun and enjoy the evening. It is classic and elegant and it is not overdone.
#2. Although it is pretty and seems to be the most popular it would be. But you won't stand out it would be popular commercial and a common bridal gown that maybe even someone you know may have. Don't you think it takes away from that something special you want and need when you get married?
#3. Is very beautiful and very Julia Roberts from Pretty Woman that was my first thought except the obvious differences but you get my gist. It looks like a party gown and dress. Not enough of what I would want for a wedding.
The above were my personal thoughts and choices on what I think would look best on you. No matter which you choose they were all beautiful. I hope I gave you enough feedback on all the gowns to help you choose one. Let us know which you decide to go with!!

#3, because I had a big poofy dress and it made everything soooo difficult! It was pretty but I think everyone in the wedding party stepped on it at some point. This dress is feminine and beautiful but won't be difficult to get around in--and people will see you, not just the dress.

I like # 3 with your height and weight I think it would work for you. But if I were you I would try on as many as it takes until you look in the mirror and you find the one dress that makes you smile. That will be the one.

Hmm....I'd say either 2nd or 3rd. They're very different styles, though so I think it depends what you're looking for.
The one piece of advice I will give is to go try them on. Please please PLEASE do not buy a dress without trying on a BUNCH of them.....I had picked out dresses that I thought were gorgeous online...I (thankfully) went to the store and tried them on and didn't really like any of them ON me. They were pretty, but nothing made me say "wow" or feel amazing. After finding out what I DID like about each dress, the lady working with me brought out a dress I never would have picked for myself. I tried it on and never wanted to take it off...it was perfect. I honestly don't think going to have any idea which dress you want until you see it on you.
Good luck! I think getting the dresses is one of the most fun things about planning a wedding!

Personally, I LOVE the second one!!!!!! It's very classy looking and has a touch of that new style where the skirt of the gown is sort of bunched up in places. How exciting!! I just got married 4 months ago and it was so fun (and stressful) to plan! Congrats!!!!

I guess I am going to be a little bit different then everyone else and go with #1, it looks very classic and when you look at your wedding pics. 20 years from now hopfully you will not saying "wow that was so 2006"

Couldn't see the first one. Second one is interesting - pretty bare on top. Third is quite slinky. Have you tried them all on? How are they with your height and build - you must be quite slim, so probably number two if you aren't too busty.

Personally I would go with the second dress because it looks comfortable and it is very elegant and pretty.
